Tip #1 for Buying Hunting Land in North Florida: Location Matters

If you’re thinking about purchasing hunting land in North Florida, the location of the land matters – a lot. Depending on how frequently you plan to use the property, you may want something that’s close to home; on the other hand, you may want to get away. In either situation, you need to make sure that there are nearby amenities that you’ll need. You may want to look at medical facilities, police and fire, grocery stores, restaurants and other important locations in relation to the property before you make a decision.

Tip #2 for Buying Hunting Land in North Florida: Size Counts

The size of your hunting property matters, as well as whether it backs up to other hunting properties farms, cattle ranches, timberland or other parcels that people own. Though there’s no general rule of thumb for how large a hunting property should be, it’s important that your property is large enough for you to enjoy it fully.

Tip #3 for Buying Hunting Land in North Florida: Terrain is Important

The terrain of any hunting property you consider buying should be conducive to a good living environment for the wildlife you intend to hunt. You also want all of your property to be accessible to you and your guests. And while we are discussing terrain, accessibility is also important period you need to be able to get to the property via an established road.

Tip #4 for Buying Hunting Land in North Florida: Wildlife Patterns in the Area Should Affect Your Choice

You’ll need to do quite a bit of research before settling on a hunting property that you want to purchase in North Florida. That’s because you need to know what the wildlife patterns are in the area so you don’t buy a property that’s bereft of animals.

Tip #5 for Buying Hunting Land in North Florida: Amenities and Infrastructure May Play a Role in Your Decision

Nearby amenities and infrastructure are important, but so are amenities and infrastructure on the property. If you need running water, for example, it costs quite a bit to run pipes and connect to the nearest city system; likewise, if a property you want to purchase isn’t already connected to the electrical grid, you may be on the hook for making that happen in the future. Additionally, if you want any improvements on the land, such as a hunting lodge or usable bathrooms, you may want to purchase a property that already has these structures in place. That way, you don’t have to build them yourself later.
